The Benetton B186 was a Formula One racing car built and raced by the Benetton team in the 1986 season. It was the first car the team constructed after Benetton bought the Toleman team at the end of 1985, and the planned Toleman TG186 chassis was simply renamed. Designed under chief engineer Rory Byrne, it carried a turbocharged BMW four cylinder engine that produced about 1,400 horsepower in qualifying trim and ran on Pirelli tyres. Gerhard Berger and Teo Fabi drove it to two pole positions and three fastest laps, and Berger won the Mexican Grand Prix, the team's first victory. It was the only Benetton to use BMW power and was replaced by the Ford powered B187 for 1987.
